Manhattan Reborn 1978

Blue crystal top.

Old Morgan asked Lilith for David's manuscript.

The living room was quiet, and everyone was silently looking at the records in their hands, digesting what David proposed for Morgan Stanley. .Future development plans. .

Um. .

In fact, this can no longer be regarded as a plan.

David's description of the plans for setting up new Morgan Stanley divisions was as maddening as a doctor prescribing a plan for a head transplant. .Unbelievable~!

Morgan Stanley's original departments and business systems need to be broken up, planned, split, integrated, and reorganized in this plan.

After about ten minutes, David felt that the massage force on Polly's hands was getting lighter and lighter.

He opened his eyes and winked at Polly, waving his hand for her to come back and sit down.

Nylent was the first to speak without restraint.

"David, I can understand the addition of new departments in your plan, but this... consulting department, public relations department, real estate finance department..."

"They...are all included in this plan?"

David smiled and nodded, rubbing his temples with his hands: "I can understand your concerns. I also said before that this plan is just an idea of ​​mine."

"How much you can accept and how to implement it all need to be determined based on Morgan Stanley's actual situation~"

"After all, I have never participated in the management of an investment bank. Some aspects may be overly idealistic and lack reality."

Old Morgan put down the record in his hand, waved his hand and interrupted: "Your plan is very good~"

"Morgan Stanley, as a traditional investment bank, transformed into a financial services investment bank on Wall Street."

"Let it completely get rid of the reputation of gentlemen's clubs~"

"I support this plan~!"

With that said, Old Morgan took the record and continued to read.

Nylent, a young man and a pioneer of change, opened his mouth at Old Morgan's final word, but finally lowered his head and chose to read the record again. .

When David saw Polly come back and sit down, he whispered in her ear: "Go tell your father and call the family members in the evening. I will meet them and have a chat~!"

"Also~ you go outside and tell... Mike Bai and the others who is downstairs?"

Polly blinked, looked back at Andy, and said with some uncertainty: "White Mike and... Black Mike?... They should be there~"

"Okay~ You go make a call now, and then go downstairs and tell them, Jean... Giovanni found Yuri Orlov and told him to come to Stanley to find me tomorrow morning, and asked Lavis to contact Lawrence, Jean Come and meet me tonight, I have something to tell him~"

"ok~"

Polly glanced at everyone and was about to get up and go out. David stretched out his hand to hold her back: "If...Lawrence and...Alto are together, let him come at night~!"

"Uh... Okay~" Polly had many questions in her mind, but it was not the right time to talk them out to David.

She nodded politely to everyone, walked out of the room, and closed the door gently.

in the living room.

David looked at Nylent: "In this plan, everything can be put aside first. Only the establishment of branches and branches overseas needs to be put on the agenda immediately!"

"This branch can be small, but it must be fully staffed and able to undertake all the business functions of Morgan Stanley on Wall Street. It must also quickly get involved in the local financial and social circles and use our own advantages to quickly establish a network of contacts."

David glanced at Old Morgan, who raised his head, and then said: "Time waits for no one!"

“Whether it is the silver futures market, or the upcoming oil crisis, or the gold price fluctuations caused by the risk of dollar depreciation, a large amount of international market information is needed to provide reference and basis for every step of our plan ~ and for our follow-up Provide real information support for planning, reducing risks and expanding returns.”

"Also...does Morgan have any...friends in Saudi Arabia or OPEC members?"

As soon as David's question came out, the smile on Mr. Otis Parker's face was quite playful, like a melon-eater who had finally waited for the sweet moment. .

But his actions were exactly the opposite of his expression.

Mr. Parker stood up and nodded politely to everyone: "I... suddenly felt a little stomachache~"

This of his. .As soon as the lame excuse came out, Andy stood up with a smile and put down the paper and pen: "Just in time, I have some...stomachache~ Let's go together~"

Seeing that these two were about to leave, Sam Rogers stood up quickly: "Well... I just drank too many... drinks... I just need to go to the bathroom~"

With that said, Sam followed Andy, glanced at David, nodded slightly to him, and walked out of the room~

In the living room, Old Morgan glanced at Seamus.

Seamus made an exaggerated expression: This David is much better than your children~

Old Morgan was speechless. .Nod slightly.

David's eyes turned back from the direction of the room door, waiting for Old Morgan's answer.

"Friend, yes!"

"Just... friends~!"

David understands~

"Then...if I want to go there in January or February next year...is it suitable?"

Old Morgan's eyes were full of surprise: "Where are you going?"

David shrugged nonchalantly: "I've rarely even been out to New York City, so I want to go to several OPEC countries to visit, wander around, and make some friends~to appreciate the local desert customs~!"

Everyone is dumbfounded~

Lilith, who was sitting next to David, couldn't help but said: "What's so interesting about them? Aren't they all a piece of yellow sand and..."

David looked at Lilith teasingly: "So, you've been there?"

"Uh... No~ I just heard about it~"

Old Morgan narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "If a second oil crisis really happens, the OPEC countries will not be very safe..."

"Haha~ It doesn't matter, I just want to see how rich they are~"

"Uh...hahahaha~"

Old Morgan understood what David meant and couldn't help laughing~

After a while, after laughing, old Morgan patted his old buddy Seamus, thought for a while and said: "A few years ago... Kissinger always went there, I will talk to him~"

"Wait for us... Once we are sure, we will arrange for you to go!"

"ok~!"

When David saw Old Morgan agreeing, he nodded with a smile and looked at Seamus: "I still need more information for reference regarding your family's business transformation direction and plan."

"So... can you provide me with some more detailed data?"

Seamus agreed simply: "No problem~What do you need?"

David tilted his head and thought for a moment: "The most important thing is the shareholding list and... the financial statements of the main business in recent years~"

Seamus thought about it and said with a smile: "I'll have Grace bring it to you tomorrow~!"

"I.."

Grace said a word in surprise and looked at everyone. .I don’t quite understand what Seamus meant.

David glanced at her, took Lilith's hand with a smile, and continued: "I want...Lilith to hand over all the work of the media group and insurance company to Grace."

"In this way, Lilith can concentrate on establishing the biological and medical research center and the data science research center."

"Among them, I have already mentioned the importance of the data research center~"

“If it is completed and put into use earlier, it will be more helpful to us~!”

Lilith held David's hand, trembling slightly and sweating quickly. .

She looked nervously at the old Morgan who was pondering. .

Old Morgan nodded slowly and said: "Okay~ Grace will take over Lilith's work. I will arrange for someone to take over her previous work!"

Grace's eyes widened and her mouth opened into an O shape. .

She never dreamed that she would sit here and listen to David's plan today. .Changing jobs? ? ?

Nylent also looked at David in surprise, and began to reposition himself towards this boy. .

David smiled happily at Grace: "Then... I still need a favor from you~"

"Help me collect all the information about ups company~!"

"UPS? UPS?" Grace closed her mouth, frowned nicely, and nodded. She had thousands of questions in her mind, but she kept them in her heart and did not ask them.

Seeing her nodding, David stood up with a smile: "Uncle Seamus, I have a vague idea that you and the Morgan family both have railway businesses, so I thought... maybe integrate the transportation industry as your family's future development. One of the directions should be a good choice~!"

Seamus was stunned for a moment, nodded slowly, stood up and said, "I'm also very interested in the real estate finance aspect you just mentioned~"

David smiled very happily: "Well...multiple companies, equity trusts, what do you think?"

Seamus looked back at Old Morgan, laughed and said, "Morgan Bank?"

"That's right~"

"Okay~I'm...waiting for your good news!"

"Ok~ You will definitely be satisfied!"

David took a big step forward and shook hands with Seamus. Both of them saw satisfaction in each other's eyes. .

Everyone here, except for Lilith who reacted a little slowly, Old Morgan, Nylent, and Grace all knew that Seamus wanted to enter the Manhattan real estate industry to test the waters~!

David smiled and let go of Seamus' hand, sighing: "Maybe we have more opportunities to cooperate~"

"Our security company will definitely develop rapidly in the future!"

Seamus nodded and made a sitting gesture to David: "I'm looking forward to it~"

David shook his head and looked at Old Morgan: "I've wasted so much of your time today, so it's time for me to say goodbye~"

Old Morgan stood up with a smile, walked slowly to Seamus, stretched out his hand and said, "Okay~ I'm going to meet Leslie Rockefeller's grandfather tonight to talk about some things."

David managed the expression on his face and continued to smile: "If you have received the news about the interest rate hike, can you..."

Old Morgan held David's hand and shook it gently: "I know you are a kid... Haha~"

"Okay~ I will!~"

"When the time comes, I will arrange for someone to notify you!"

"Thank you!"

David thanked him politely. .

Seeing his appearance, Old Morgan shook his head slightly and sighed: "The meeting with you today is the happiest I've had in recent years."

"Yes ~ I know!"

"Haha~ Then are you still... so polite?"

David couldn't help but raise his hand and scratch his head: "I'm not... The amount of information I received today was a bit large, and I didn't fully digest it for a while~"

"Hahaha~"

Old Morgan laughed, and Seamus reached out and patted David on the shoulder: "David Coleman~!"

"You didn't disappoint me, but you brought me a surprise~"

"Now I understand a little bit about Odis Parker's strange thoughts~hahaha~"

David took a step back slightly, and the smile on his face stiffened: "You... won't be like him..."

"fxxx!"

"You are just like him! Haha~"

"Uh...hehehe~" David smiled and touched his nose.

He turned to old Morgan and said hesitantly: "I...I...I still like Pine very much~ If he doesn't want to...I hope you can agree to let him help me too!"

Old Morgan's eyes did not change, his smile did not change, he took half a step forward, put his hand on David's shoulder and said: "I don't mean to deliberately hide anything from you."

"I've said it before, the Morgan family and the Morgan consortium are only part of what I control!"

"There are some words and things that I didn't say directly to you today. I hope you can understand!"

"Huh~ Got it!~"

David took a deep breath, made himself more energetic, and responded with a smile: "Time will prove that I value friendship above all else!"

"Okay~! Time will prove what I said today!"

"So... David Coleman, my friend?"

"Haha~ Sirrod Pierpont Morgan, my friend!"

"Hahaha~"

Seamus said with some dissatisfaction: "David?"

"Uh...Uncle Seamus, my friend~!"

"fxxx!"

"You kid, when it's my turn, you're my uncle?"

"Hahaha~"

"You still have to have etiquette, you are my elder!"

"Hey, damn elder, from now on... you better call me Seamus!"

"Okay~ Seamus, my friend!"

The three of them looked at each other and continued to laugh.

The smile on David's face showed a bit of relief and a bit of joy!

----

ten minutes later.

Sapphire crystal lobby on the first floor.

David and a few others walked out of the elevator, pulling Nylent, who had escorted them down, to a corner: "Don't worry about Grace, I will help~ But... you know~ it takes time!"

Nelent Ramon smiled and nodded: "I understand~"

David raised his eyebrows at him: "I will be in Stanley's conference room on the fourth floor in the past few days. If you have any questions, you can come to me~ Grace... should be there too!"

"Good~!"

Nellent nodded with even more satisfaction.

David smiled and stretched out his hand: "Then... good luck to you, Nyrent!"

"Haha~ You too, David!"

The two shook hands and said goodbye.

Nylent watched David, Polly, and Andy get into a car and slowly disappear into the distance.

Mr. Otis Parker stood with Sam, waiting for Mr. Parker's driver to drive over.

Nylent thought for a moment, took a few steps forward, smiled at Mr. Parker and stretched out his hand: "In the future, we will have more cooperation~!"

Mr. Parker shook hands with Nellent in a very gentlemanly manner and said, "Definitely~! I'm looking forward to seeing the new Morgan Stanley under your leadership!"

"Thank you~haha~"

"You're welcome, we are already friends, aren't we~!"

"That's right~!"

Sam stood aside, looking at the two of them, and silently moved back. Mr. Parker's car also drove over at this time.

Mr. Parker nodded politely: "I will also go to Stanley tomorrow, then... we will see you tomorrow!?"

"Okay ~ Goodbye, Mr. Parker ~!"

Nylent stood there and sent Mr. Parker and Sam away~!

He turned his head, looked around, adjusted his clothes, with a smile on his lips, shook his head slightly, and walked into the blue crystal. .

----

On the road, in the car.

David and Polly were sitting in the back row, and he rested his head on Polly's lap: "We will go directly to your house. I need to sleep for a while. When everyone is here, you can call me again!"

"Okay!" Polly gently smoothed the broken hair on David's head with her hands, feeling the heat coming from her legs, while the temperature on her face slowly increased. .

Mike Bai, who was sitting in the driver's seat, glanced at the rearview mirror and winked at Andy, who was sitting in the passenger seat: "Shall I take you home first?"

Andy smiled and nodded. He glanced at Polly and shook his head at Mike.

David sat up at this time and said to Andy: "You go back and have a rest first. In the evening... you can also come to old Malkin's house..."

He looked at Andy's confused eyes and explained: "Sorry~ I can only trouble you to help me now!"

"Um..Okay~!"

Andy thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Do you need me to go back and make some preparations?"

"Well... you should ask Olina about the specific details of foreign tax avoidance! Olina should be very experienced in this area!"

"Oh? Haha~ Okay!"

"Say sorry to Sally for me, I promise there will be no next time!"

"Haha~ next time? She will lose her temper~!"

David lay back on Polly's lap, grinned and said, "Andy, why have you become...the weakling in the family?"

"Well... I mean respect! As a man, you must have..."

"Ok~ok~Next time Sally is here, go ahead and tell her this~!"

Polly smiled and gave David a slap on the arm: "Aren't you tired? Why don't you take the time to rest?"

"Yeah...ok~"

"Mike Bai, please tell Susan for me. I will go back very late tonight!"

"Haha~Okay~!"

Mike Bai exerted force on his feet and increased the speed of the car. .

He didn't know what David did or said today while he was in the blue crystal, which would lead to this~!

but. .

What does it matter to him?

hehe~

----

On the top floor of the blue crystal, Grace spoke to Old Morgan and Seamus, and then went downstairs with Lilith to find Laura.

Old Morgan picked up a cup of hot coffee that had just been delivered, took a big sip, shook his head and sighed: "I really don't know what this David guy has in his head...what?"

Seamus took a comfortable sip of the cocktail David had made before: "I think your behavior today is a little abnormal?"

"Hmm..Yes~"

Old Morgan put down his coffee cup, stood up and walked to the window, looking at Manhattan under the sunset, and was silent for a while before saying.

"Will you also come with me to meet Nelson tonight?"

"Me? Let's forget it~ We quarreled as soon as we met, and it's not like you didn't know~"

"Haha~ You have been arguing for decades~ What else is there to argue about now?"

Seamus took a sip of wine and said, "That old guy always puts on his most awesome face, and it annoys me when I see him~!"

"What are you talking about? Just tell me when you come back ~ I won't see him with you!"

Old Morgan was silent.

He looked at the passing vehicles on the street in the distance for a while, and whispered: "I have a feeling that David's prediction may... come true again~!"

Seamus thought for a while, put down his wine glass, walked to Old Morgan, and looked out the window: "Aren't these things you have guessed before?"

"No, no one can be like David!"

“Especially the push to restrict pension exposure and enter the market, the number of people who know that it can pass is very limited.”

Seamus became interested: "Then how did David guess it?"

"He said... he guessed it based on information from the news and newspapers!"

"Guess? Hahaha~"

"Then his prediction of the oil crisis was also a guess?"

"Ok!"

"Hahaha~ So, do you think he will guess it right this time?"

"Hmm~"

"fxxx!"

"I know why you behaved so strangely today~ Were you...scared by him?"

"Haha~ Scared? Not really~ I'm just a little hard to understand~"

Seamus shook his head and said: "There is nothing difficult to understand!"

"The bond hedging arbitrage plan he mentioned, as far as I know, someone on Wall Street is already doing it."

"However... I haven't paid much specific attention to this aspect. I didn't expect that this David boy would take it out today and ask Morgan Stanley to set up a separate department to deal with this business."

Old Morgan glanced at Seamus curiously: "Do you still have time to pay attention to these? Your bonds haven't been sold out yet, right?"

“Of course~ It’s because we also issued bonds that I pay attention to this market~!”

"Um..Okay~"

"When David talked about this plan today, it reminded me of a few people!"

"Who?"

“Steve Cohen, George Soros, Jim Rogers!”

----

Miami, Florida.

Cohen, Jackal, and Rambo were sitting at a table in a small room, smoking silently and looking at the phone in a daze.

The jackal took a long drag on the cigarette and glanced at his watch: "The time is almost up!"

"Um.."

Cohen responded in a low voice, put out the cigarette in his hand, and lit another one.

Seeing the two of them smoking non-stop like a big chimney, Rambo stood up and opened the window so that the outside air could bring some freshness to the room.

After ten minutes.

Cohen put out the cigarette butt in his hand, glanced at the two of them and said, "Let's go~"

"We... will wait for the call when we get back!"

Jackal looked at Cohen helplessly: "Are you sure that if we do this, we won't be...fired?"

Cohen took out a bullet casing from somewhere, kissed it, shook his head and said, "God will bless us~!"

"Let's go~!"

After saying that, he pushed the door open and walked out of the room first. Jackal glanced at Rambo who was sitting by the window: "Why don't you persuade him?"

Rambo twisted his lips: "The boss is far away in New York, and now Cohen is in charge~"

"Um..Okay~"

Jackal picked up his hat from the table and put it on, then arranged his body armor and equipment: "Let's go~ I will definitely do it tonight... It will be very enjoyable~ Haha~!"

Rambo came down from the window sill, organized his equipment, looked back out the window, and gestured like Cohen: "God bless~Amen~"
